Abstract: The present invention provides a liquid enclosing type vibration isolating mount comprising a vibration isolating base member 16, a diaphragm 20 and a partition member 22 for vertically dividing a space between the former two into upper and lower liquid chambers 24 and 26. The partition member 22 is made of a press worked metal plate which is held in contact with the periphery of the diaphragm 20 to provide an orifice path 28 for establishing communication between the liquid chambers 24 and 26. The vibration isolating mount of the present invention has the following advantages: The partition member 22 is made of a press worked metal plate so that the manufacturing cost can be saved; since the periphery of the diaphragm 20 is used as a part of the wall of the orifice path 28, the axial length of the mount can be shortened and the shape of the mount is simplified; and the pressing process of the partition member 22 is facilitated.

A vibration isolating base body formed of elastic material is fitted in the upper opening of the rigid tubular fitting. A diaphragm seals the lower opening of the rigid tubular fitting and a partition is disposed in the interior fitting cavity of the rigid tubular fitting between the vibration isolating base body and the diaphragm to divide the interior fitting cavity into a first liquid chamber and a second liquid chamber. The first liquid chamber has a first liquid chamber wall formed at least in part by the vibration isolating base body, the partition and the rigid tubular fitting. The second liquid chamber has a second liquid chamber wall formed at least in part by the diaphragm and the partition. The partition defines an orifice communicating the first and the second liquid chambers with each other.
